Summary[edit]

Description

Drugs worth up to £30 million have been seized in what seasoned detectives are describing as the largest hauls in their careers.

Cannabis, cocaine and MDMA, more commonly known as Ecstasy, weighing almost 200 kilograms were uncovered at a unit on the Maybrook industrial estate in Brownhills as part of an intelligence led policing operation.

Officers swooped on the unit at around 5pm on Wednesday (27 November) but details have only today been released West Midlands Police following a full assessment of the haul by forensic investigators, drugs experts and the force’s top detectives.

Experts continue to chemically analyse the substances. Conservative estimates put the drugs value at £10 million but purity tests could see the value of the seizure rocket to £30 million.
